We're being asked about these regularly, but e.g. bluetooth certification is still too prohibitive to just do without a customer.

However, I'm also frustrated with "everything is customer funded", so we're looking at ways to make this things happen.

Sorry to be vague.

On this topic (certified libraries) I suspect an interesting evolution might happen: by observing how you guys at Ferrous achieved this milestone while keeping a consistent openness, other actors (companies, consultancies and academic institutions) start seriously thinking about the possibility of contributing with high quality and certified libraries for a lot of scenarios. In other words I’d look at this as a milestone that opens to new and disrupting ideas
Yes, and this does indeed happen. Turns out publishing such a thing makes people get in touch.
